Meet the Hosts
Two friends who traded the mainland hustle for island time and endless laughs
Chip Chantry
Returning as Kyle the Liar · Season 3, Aug 2026Chip Chantry is a stand up comedian, television writer and actor. In 2024, he released Move Closer, his first stand up special, following his role as Kyle the Liar on the Netflix series Tires. Formerly a 4th grade teacher, Chip Chantry left the classroom to pursue a successful career as a comedian, touring nationally and opening for acts such as Sarah Silverman, Dave Chappelle, Bob Saget, Gary Gulman, and Andrew Schulz.
Coming up in the Philadelphia comedy scene, Chip won Helium Comedy Club's "Philly's Phunniest" contest, and was named "Best Comedian in Philly" by Philadelphia Magazine. With his sharp writing and energetic stage presence, Chip keeps audiences on their toes, shifting easily from hard-hitting one-liners to well-crafted storytelling.
As a television writer, Chip has written comedy series for NBC, FOX, Disney+ and NatGeo. Chantry has been a recurring guest on the "Doug Loves Movies" and "Todd Glass Show" Podcasts. In 2012, he released his first live comedy album, "Across From The Adonis." His second stand up album, "Swingers Party," debuted at #1 on the iTunes Comedy Charts in March 2019.
Thomas O'Brien
Thomas O'Brien is an Emmy‑winning producer, television writer, showrunner, and co‑host of the Sunburnt Podcast. Originally from the Pacific Northwest, O'Brien blended a background Seattle's tech world with a passion for comedy—performing in the L.A. scene while producing more than 600 episodes of TV for NBC, ABC, FOX, Nat Geo, Disney+, and others.
He is the founder of Electric OBrien, a production company at the intersection of comedy, film, and emerging tech. With experience spanning network television, branded storytelling for global giants like Procter & Gamble, Anheuser‑Busch, and Mattel, plus production‑level app development, O'Brien brings a unique mix of showbiz savvy and startup energy to everything he does.
But most people don't know—or care—about any of that. They just see a beautiful man in a dazzling Hawaiian shirt who loves his wife and daughter, and whose dead eyes flicker back to life whenever someone mentions a beach vacation or Waikiki.
